Introduction

Over the last few years, I have noticed a large increase in the prices of oil. While know that the rise in gas prices is a result of the Nations falling economy, I want to see if the rising prices are affecting the daily lives of the American people and how. For my ethnographic study, I am trying to find out if and how the rising gas prices are affecting peoples driving habits. I will find out this information through research, interviews, and observations.
